¹Треће године царовања Валтасаровог показа се мени Данилу утвара после оне која ми се показала пре.

¹In the third year of the reign of king Belshazzar a vision appeared unto me, even unto me Daniel, after that which appeared unto me at the first.

²И видех у утвари; а бејах у Сусану у граду који је у земљи Еламу, кад видех, и видех у утвари и бејах на води Улају.

²And I saw in a vision; and it came to pass, when I saw, that I was at Shushan in the palace, which is in the province of Elam; and I saw in a vision, and I was by the river of Ulai.

³И подигох очи своје и видех, и гле, стајаше крај воде ован, који имаше два рога, а рогови беху високи, али један виши од другог, и виши нарасте после.

³Then I lifted up mine eyes, and saw, and, behold, there stood before the river a ram which had two horns: and the two horns were high; but one was higher than the other, and the higher came up last.

⁴Видех овна где боде на запад и на север и на југ, и ниједна звер не могаше му одолети, и не беше никога ко би избавио од њега, него чињаше шта хоћаше, и осили.

⁴I saw the ram pushing westward, and northward, and southward; so that no beasts might stand before him, neither was there any that could deliver out of his hand; but he did according to his will, and became great.

⁵А кад ја мотрах, гле, иђаше јарац од запада поврх све земље, а не дотицаше се земље; и тај јарац имаше рог знаменит међу очима својим.

⁵And as I was considering, behold, an he goat came from the west on the face of the whole earth, and touched not the ground: and the goat had a notable horn between his eyes.

⁶И дође до овна који имаше два рога, ког видех где стоји крај воде, и потрча на њ гневно силом својом.

⁶And he came to the ram that had two horns, which I had seen standing before the river, and ran unto him in the fury of his power.

⁷И видех га где дође до овна, и разгневивши се на њ удари овна, те му сломи оба рога и не беше силе у овну да му одоли, него га обори на земљу и погази га, и не беше никога да избави овна од њега.

⁷And I saw him come close unto the ram, and he was moved with choler against him, and smote the ram, and brake his two horns: and there was no power in the ram to stand before him, but he cast him down to the ground, and stamped upon him: and there was none that could deliver the ram out of his hand.

⁸И јарац поста врло велик; а кад осили, сломи се велики рог, и место њега нарастоше знаменита четири рога према четири ветра небеска.

⁸Therefore the he goat waxed very great: and when he was strong, the great horn was broken; and for it came up four notable ones toward the four winds of heaven.

⁹И из једног од њих изиђе један рог мален и нарасте врло велик према југу и истоку и према красној земљи.

⁹And out of one of them came forth a little horn, which waxed exceeding great, toward the south, and toward the east, and toward the pleasant land.

¹⁰И нарасте дори до војске небеске, и обори на земљу неке од војске и од звезда, и погази их.

¹⁰And it waxed great, even to the host of heaven; and it cast down some of the host and of the stars to the ground, and stamped upon them.

¹¹И нарасте дори до поглавара тој војсци, и узе Му свагдашњу жртву, и свети стан Његов обори.

¹¹Yea, he magnified himself even to the prince of the host, and by him the daily sacrifice was taken away, and the place of the sanctuary was cast down.

¹²И војска би дана у отпад од жртве свагдашње, и обори истину на земљу, и шта чињаше напредоваше му.

¹²And an host was given him against the daily sacrifice by reason of transgression, and it cast down the truth to the ground; and it practised, and prospered.

¹³Тада чух једног свеца где говораше; и један светац рече некоме који говораше: Докле ће трајати та утвара за свагдашњу жртву и за отпад пустошни да се гази светиња и војска?

¹³Then I heard one saint speaking, and another saint said unto that certain saint which spake, How long shall be the vision concerning the daily sacrifice, and the transgression of desolation, to give both the sanctuary and the host to be trodden under foot?

¹⁴И рече ми: До две хиљаде и три стотине дана и ноћи; онда ће се светиња очистити.

¹⁴And he said unto me, Unto two thousand and three hundred days; then shall the sanctuary be cleansed.

¹⁵А кад видех ја Данило ову утвару, и заисках да разумем, гле, стаде преда ме као човек.

¹⁵And it came to pass, when I, even I Daniel, had seen the vision, and sought for the meaning, then, behold, there stood before me as the appearance of a man.

¹⁶И чух глас човечији насред Улаја, који повика и рече: Гаврило, кажи овоме утвару.

¹⁶And I heard a man's voice between the banks of Ulai, which called, and said, Gabriel, make this man to understand the vision.

¹⁷И дође где ја стајах; и кад дође уплаших се, и падох на лице своје; а он ми рече: Пази, сине човечији, јер је ова утвара за последње време.

¹⁷So he came near where I stood: and when he came, I was afraid, and fell upon my face: but he said unto me, Understand, O son of man: for at the time of the end shall be the vision.

¹⁸А док ми он говораше, ја бејах изван себе лежећи ничице на земљи; а он ме се дотаче, и исправи ме, те стадох.

¹⁸Now as he was speaking with me, I was in a deep sleep on my face toward the ground: but he touched me, and set me upright.

¹⁹И рече: Ево, ја ћу ти казати шта ће бити на крају гнева; јер ће у одређено време бити крај.

¹⁹And he said, Behold, I will make thee know what shall be in the last end of the indignation: for at the time appointed the end shall be.

²⁰Ован што си га видео, који има два рога, то су цареви мидски и персијски.

²⁰The ram which thou sawest having two horns are the kings of Media and Persia.

²¹А руњави је јарац цар грчки; и велики рог што му беше међу очима, то је први цар.

²¹And the rough goat is the king of Grecia: and the great horn that is between his eyes is the first king.

²²А шта се он сломи, и место њега нарастоше четири, то су четири царства, која ће настати иза тог народа, али не његовом силом.

²²Now that being broken, whereas four stood up for it, four kingdoms shall stand up out of the nation, but not in his power.

²³А на крају царовања њиховог, кад безаконици наврше меру, настаће цар бестидан и лукав.

²³And in the latter time of their kingdom, when the transgressors are come to the full, a king of fierce countenance, and understanding dark sentences, shall stand up.

²⁴Сила ће му бити јака, али не од његове јачине, и чудесно ће пустошити, и биће срећан и свршиваће, и губиће силне и народ свети.

²⁴And his power shall be mighty, but not by his own power: and he shall destroy wonderfully, and shall prosper, and practise, and shall destroy the mighty and the holy people.

²⁵И лукавством његовим напредоваће превара у његовој руци, и подигнуће се у срцу свом, и у миру ће погубити многе, и устаће на Кнеза над кнезовима, али ће се потрти без руке.

²⁵And through his policy also he shall cause craft to prosper in his hand; and he shall magnify himself in his heart, and by peace shall destroy many: he shall also stand up against the Prince of princes; but he shall be broken without hand.

²⁶А речена утвара о дану и ноћи истина је; зато ти запечати утвару, јер је за много времена.

²⁶And the vision of the evening and the morning which was told is true: wherefore shut thou up the vision; for it shall be for many days.

²⁷Тада ја Данило занемогох, и боловах неко време; после устах и врших послове цареве; и чудих се утвари, али нико не дозна.

²⁷And I Daniel fainted, and was sick certain days; afterward I rose up, and did the king's business; and I was astonished at the vision, but none understood it.
